honestly i feel its kindve like the n word if somebody were to call me one id be pissed off because theyre dehumanising me and turning me into a sex object on the other hand while i was in for my srs quite a few of us threw the word around more as a jokey term ie yeah were in the tranny ward at the end of the corridor i think context is an incredibly big factor for all language if you find offense at its use regardless then let people know and if theyre even a semi decent human being theyll stop
